Coetus noster laetus esto pro Henrici sacro festo est laetandi causa praesto praesulis celebritas. Quem elegit, quem dilexit, quem ornavit, quem provexit, in sublime quem erexit divina benignitas. Ortus in Britannia, pollens Dei gratia, superna providentia pontifex efficitur. Clarus in Upsalia, demum pro iustitia decertans in Finlandia pugil Christi moritur. Miris signis et variis sanctum suum prodigiis declarat venerabilem Deus verus, quem coluit, amavit atque docuit colendum et amabilem. Martyr Dei, iam laborum et mercede tormentorum summo bono sine metu et Sanctorum fruens coetu in aeterna gloria. Te laudantem nostrum coetum et in tua laude laetum fac in coetu Angelorum sempiterna beatorum perfrui laetitia. Amen.

Language: Finnish (Suomi)
Sata miestä miekatonta, tuhat miestä miekallista, kaikki miehet vaaran alta, mullan mustan sisältähe. Minä laulan Turun miehen, pahan pieksän paavin papin, sylen syöksen tuuran vartta, kirvehellä kutkuttelen! My brother, dearest Henry, do not depart for Finland! Many a man has gone and vanished, many a man has gone and perished, few have safely come again. Minä, minä, minä manaan, minä manaan! Sen Turku minusta saapi, pajattaapi paavin pappi, kiittelevi Ristin Kiesus. Sen Turku saapi! Tapan, tapan, minä tapan!
